Title: I've  got an MM habit.... one more new mansion
Post by aquaMat on 08.10.2008 at 20:08:43
It's starting to trouble me....

Even though I am currently very busy with "real work" I couldn't resist another wave of inspiration and have finished yet another new mansion.  
I'll admit it.... I've got an MM habit !

Is it starting to bore you already ?  (The new mansions, I mean)

I hope not.

My latest one is called "Perpetuum Mobile"  and for those of you who do not speak Latin, a perpetuum mobile is a construction that is continually moving without external energy. Endlessly moving and thereby creating its own energy to move, so to speak.

Well, in this mansion Jack is going on another one of those "underground missions" and in this cave system he happens to come across several perpetuum mobiles, right from the start. Central to the cave system is a bigger one, which is quite challenging, but there are also a few conventional underground palaces and other stuff. It's pretty tough, though....    8-)

Expect release in about 2 weeks, it's finished, but not yet tested.
Maybe it'll even be release no. 100.....

He he, I certainly won't complain about your MM addiction  :)

From what I imagine, your next mansion might look like that:

Depending on where in sweden you are... the description of your land matches gothenburg perfectly so for all I know, you could be swedish too :)

Here's a small overview screenshot of a part of Perpetuum Mobile.

This time I didn't do it from inside the editor to prevent people from tryin' to spot the blue S's.   ;)    :P

So, when I download this mansion, and me and Jack get started in it, does that mean I will have constant energy to move, and keep creating energy, so that I can Effortlessly get everything done I need to do around here???? ;) ;D ::)

If so ....... bring it ON !!!!   [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

All kidding aside, aquaMat, I can't wait for another of your creations, you are truly one of our great CM contributors!

take care,

SandyBean [smiley=2vrolijk_08.gif]

Thank you very much, SandyBean....
and everybody else for the compliments !!

In fact the beta-testing of Perpetuum Mobile is now almost finished, and I guess I'll be sending the mansion to the admins tomorrow.

I'm looking forward to how this mansion will be received.

It's somewhat peculiar:
It is of medium size (ca. 90 rooms), but it has got many secrets.
It is pretty tough, especially in the first half, but this is counterbalanced with a whoile lot of saves and plenty of bucks !

Whereas it is not easy to reach the first save pedestal, the saves are coming more often (and closer to each other) in the central section.

For example, the area that is probably the hardest of the mansion is "flanked" by saves, one directly before and one after it, to make it a bit easier.

Perpetuum Mobile.
Coming to a theater near you.
Any day now.....

;)   8-)

A minute ago I have sent out Perpetuum Mobile to the admins.

I have also sent them an update of Underground Fortress which fixes the potential JS that someone reported in the UF thread a while ago.
